San Marcos Auto Repair

Had multiple cars worked on here, always professional and done well and quickly. My goto

We brought our little truck here on the recommendation of another auto repair shop because they couldn’t diagnose an electrical problem. Dealer Alternative quickly diagnosed and had it repaired in one day and at a very reasonable price. I couldn’t be more pleased!

We have been taking our vehicles to Dealers Alternative for many years and recommend them to all our friends.

Dealer Alternative Auto Care has consistently provided prompt, professional, and trustworthy service. I really appreciate that they only fix what actually needs to be fixed—there’s never any pressure or upselling. Their team is knowledgeable, courteous, and efficient, and they’ve been great about providing same-day service when possible, which makes a big difference. Another thing I value is how they keep detailed records of my vehicle’s maintenance, making future questions and planning much easier. They also take the time to give practical advice on how to maintain my vehicle between visits, which shows they genuinely care about their customers. Highly recommend Dealer Alternative Auto Care for honest, reliable, and professional auto service.

Great people. Always do a great job at a fair price. Have always taken care of any of my vehicle needs are repairs.

My daughter attends Texas State and we never had used a repair shop in San Marcus area until we contacted Dealer Automotive. From the start with the initial consult, making appt., outline of repairs to be made and pricing, to when service was completed to when instructions provided to pick up vehicle, the entire process was first class and so smooth. If you are unsure of where to take your vehicle in San Marcos area, Dealer Automotive is THE place to go. Cannot say enough positive things for a first time customer. Simply outstanding and above the rest!!!!

Jay & Christina are amazing! They were able to diagnose & fix my car the same day. I was impressed with the timing and ability to get the parts in right away. Highly recommended this place for any vehicle issues.

I have had such a wonderful experience with this place. The owner and staff are amazing at explaining what is wrong and what needs to be fixed, and the priority of repairs. It was important for me to know what can be put off a little while longer. More importantly, they were able to find/fix issues that I didn't know I had(vacuum lines, plugs not attached) and fix all of that for me as well without extra charge. Trustworthy, reliable and didn't take too long either! Highly recommend 10 out of 10

Quick repair with great service

Professional, customer centered service from the time you walk in the door until car retrieval. They do a great job of clearly articulating service options. I highly recommend this establishment for all of your car service needs.
